What in my zero-waste makeup bag? (gym/travel)

April 30, 2018

I am so pleased with the plastic-free products I have found for my on-the-go toiletries bag. I have been toting these around to the gym, and they are also my go-to products for travel, including my upcoming trip to [drum roll] CANADA and ICELAND! (woop woop!

Plastic-free, zero-waste makeup: 2018 challenge

January 31, 2018

I have made huge strides in many areas of my life since trying to go zero-waste and plastic free – like my zero waste swaps in the bathroom and successes in the kitchen.

A year without shampoo: No-poo?

July 21, 2016

It has officially been a year since I rather accidentally backed into the ‘no-poo’ (not using shampoo) movement. While I had mentioned my no-poo habit in passing (in my DIY beauty products post), I have been hesitating to write this post, partly because I was scared people would be somewhat repulsed that I never wash … More A year without shampoo: No-poo?

Walked to Cockfosters today. Any witty caption seems NSFW. #londonloop #longwalk
Spotted in the wild: the elusive Crouch End blue whale. 💙
